Hmm... it would be pretty hard to confirm it ever existed then? I doubt they'd call you, since they are trying to confirm what you said in your app.

Most likely they won't try to confirm it, especially if it only lasted a couple months.

I spent multiple years working for myself, several of which were pre-incorporation I wouldn't worry about it.
